Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. A supporter comprising: a housing including a transmission coil to wirelessly transmit power; and a fixing member disposed to face a side surface of the housing and fixing a wireless terminal when the wireless terminal is supported; and a secure member disposed at between the side surface of the housing and the fixing member, wherein the side surface of the housing is disposed to face the transmission coil and support the wireless terminal to stand up, wherein the fixing member comprises a first support, a second support and a pressing part, wherein the first support and the second support are branched from the pressing part in a downward direction, and the first and second support are spaced apart from each other in the downward direction such that an opening is formed between the first support and the second support, wherein a diameter of the opening between the first support and the second support is a first value, wherein a distance between a lower portion of the first support and a lower portion of the second support is a second value, and the first value is greater than the second value, wherein the pressing part contact the wireless terminal when the wireless terminal is supported, wherein the secure member comprises a first recess having a shape recessed from one side of the secure member toward the side surface of the housing so that a portion of the wireless terminal is exposed when the wireless terminal is supported, wherein the opening is connected to the first recess, and wherein a width of the first recess is less than a diameter of the opening.

2

2. The supporter of claim 1 , wherein the secure member further comprises a second recess having a shape recessed downwardly on a side of the first recess.

3

3. The supporter of claim 1 , wherein the fixing member further comprises an inlet part extending from the pressing part while being bent to be gradually away from the side surface of the housing.

4

4. The supporter of claim 1 , wherein the fixing member has a restoring force toward the side surface of the housing.

5

5. The supporter of claim 1 , wherein a height of the fixing member is lower than a height of the side surface of the housing.

6

6. The supporter of claim 1 , wherein a width of the fixing member is lower than a width of the side surface of the housing.

7

7. The supporter of claim 1 , wherein the fixing member is moved closer to or away from the side surface of the housing by rotational movement of a rotation shaft.

8

8. The supporter of claim 1 , wherein the side surface of the housing comprises a guide member having an inclined surface such that the wireless terminal is tilted and supported.

9

9. The supporter of claim 8 , wherein the inclined surface is inclined at 5° or more about a normal line.

10

10. The supporter of claim 1 , wherein a portion of the wireless terminal is exposed by the opening when the wireless terminal is supported.

11

11. The supporter of claim 10 , wherein a portion of a plane contacting the pressing part of the wireless terminal is exposed by the opening when the wireless terminal is supported.

12

12. The supporter of claim 1 , wherein a portion of the wireless terminal is exposed by an inlet part when the wireless terminal is supported.

13

13. The supporter of claim 12 , wherein a portion of a plane contacting the pressing part of the wireless terminal is exposed by the inlet part when the wireless terminal is supported.
